Alan Wright is a humble man with a deeply passionate musical style that reminds one of the blues-based rock styles of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker and Boz Scaggs, as well as the traditional electric blues styles of BB King, Buddy Guy, Muddy Waters, and Howlin' Wolf, and yet is uniquely different from them all too. Alan Wright has a ton of heart, and that is where his music comes from.

His talent is huge. His live show cooks with great soulful rockers as well as traditional-style blues. Alan's strong, deep, throaty, and soulful voice, at times soaring and raucous, is enormous and natural for singing the soulful roots based music he loves and writes. and is readily identifiable. He plays hot and tasty electric and acoustic guitars. It's really greasy with lots of hot sauce on it.

He is a great guitarist, singer, and songwriter. His guitar playing is pure and powerful. He plays his tail off on that thing. He also plays soulful and powerful harmonica. When he gets buried in the music it's a treat to watch him point his seafoam-green Stratocaster down at the floor, almost as if he's tapping directly down into the very roots of the music he loves.
